Seriously, if you are shuttling files around, don't you want to have like a cable at both places? I shuttle files back and forth between my studio and home using my iPod. I have two docks. Works great!
No, I totally understand how he derives his power. What I'm saying is that at some point he can't continue like he is. So he develops a nuke. Then what? Is he really going to use it somewhere?
That is a band-aid approach. The solution is to get them to develop an economy. Not to keep giving them more and more oil by bribing them. How long to you propose to keep doing that? Would you like to contribute some of your paycheck for that?
Why not give them Oil in increasing amounts if they start an economic program and reach some milestones. Then they could join the rest of the World and have some sort of economy....
If he wants to unify it, then he should invade. His father did, and history has shown us what happens. Developing Nukes is not going to unify Korea. It's going to kill people.
North Korea needs to develop an economy. A smart leader would be doing that rather than developing a military. Can you see South Korea invading North Korea? No.
North Korea should be smart and consider going the route of Germany.......
Iran is a different situation. Ideally, why would you want to even have nuclear weapons? If the United Nations worked, and another country was attacking you for no good reason, then other countries would come to your defense.
Of course if you look at Sudan, you will see how ineffective the United Nations is. And the same thing for Iraq. The United Nations gave it numerous deadlines, passed numerous resolutions, and Iraq thumbed it's nose to them.
So what do you do about North Korea? Nothing. I believe they are using all this to prop-up their government, and to scare other countries into continuing to give it free things (Food, money, etc, etc).
I really wish we had some WORLD body that effectively handled situations like these........
Exactly. Oh, but I suppose everyone forgets that now huh?
Look, that's fine. Who cares if they have a nuclear weapon or weapons. North Korea is using all this as a ploy to get Money/Food/Supplies/Oil from the US and the UN. And it works.
Let North Korea get the bomb. Let them use it and then they will be wiped out by everyone, including China.
This leads to the question of what really caused that LAST explosion they had in North Korea. Perhaps the same thing, only bigger? Bigger transport of whatever it was?
Hopefully someone will have some spy photos of it soon.......
Yeah, I'm thinking that as well. It's probably NOT a nuclear explosion. Otherwise, it would have been in the news WAY before this. I mean, the fall out cloud would have gone over other counties fairly quickly (as I believe the weather over there has been typhoonish).
Why, you'd rather have them in South Korea, and potentially being nuked?
North Korea is just trying to ensure it's food chain. IE: It's trying to scare the UN and US into giving it more food and supplies. Logic would dictate that they should stop spending money on the Military and start developing an economy. But I suppose it's easier to continue to scare countries into giving them what they want.......
What do you mean, safely contained these crazy dictators??? Read up on your history. Do you want to keep sending these guys money and stuff?
No. It's simple, no nukes and we'll be nice to you. North Korea does not have anything. Instead of trying to build industry, they would rather live off UN and US free handouts. And that is what Clinton was doing. And all the while North Korea was developing a nuclear program. Good job Bill.
"Do we really want questions (and answers) like these? Please take some time to think of good questions that are acutally hard to answer. Don't waste questions and mod-points just to share your opinion about Real's software. You may have your replies ready for such answers, but Glaser does not need to answer those."
Oh no, I suppose the "Oh mighty Glaser" can't be bothered to answer those. I've turned off everything in the software, and yet on startup I still see a "realsched.exe" program running. I don't want that. Where do I turn that off?
Reading your comments, I can see why I NEVER use Real Player. Microsoft's Media player is a better alternative.
Why not, instead of Trolling here, go and fix your lame ass program?
Exactly. Why the dichotomy? And why the back tracking? Why say you think the iPod isn't going to be a success, then all of a sudden want part of it's action?
Seriously, a couple of years ago they mattered as a cell phone maker. Who actually owns an Ericsson? My first cell phone in 1996 was one. Since then, it's been Nokia and now Motorola.....
Slashdot Mirror
Yeah, it plays MP3s. No Ogg. Honestly, AAC 160 or higher sounds excellent to me........
I've been through 3 USB Flash drives. Durable is not something I'd use in a sentence with Flash Drives.
Seriously, if you are shuttling files around, don't you want to have like a cable at both places? I shuttle files back and forth between my studio and home using my iPod. I have two docks. Works great!
Why get a flash drive when you can do the same thing with your iPod? You can kill two birds with one stone.
Its going to be a mail/file server. I think you don't need a ton of horsepower.......I used to run a fileserver/email server on a dual pentium 166.
I tried listening to my iPod underwater. Well, it worked for a few seconds. Gave me that Aquaman type sound. ;-)
The most useless interview ever. This guy is clueless. I hope his company goes bankrupt soon.....

Stargate Atlantis is pretty good. The SG-1 series is getting a little old. It would be really cool to see the two have more interaction.......
Good points, but who is going to invade North Korea? South Korea?
Why not give them Oil in increasing amounts if they start an economic program and reach some milestones. Then they could join the rest of the World and have some sort of economy....

Yes, and they should bring back Firefly instead!

Exactly. I mean, if I was going to do that I would have figured that out.
But I'd really never do that........really........seriously.......
Isn't that the same amount that people spend on porn? Hmmm.......
Seriously, a couple of years ago they mattered as a cell phone maker. Who actually owns an Ericsson? My first cell phone in 1996 was one. Since then, it's been Nokia and now Motorola.....
If it works, why change it? Hopefully prices will go down a little......
